MP: Emergency laws that helped fight Covid-19 should be reintroduced in Parliament as a Bill


KUALA LUMPUR: The announcement that Emergency laws had been revoked about a week before the special parliamentary sitting came as a surprise to Datuk Ngeh Koo Ham (PH – Beruas), who claimed there was no proof of such a decision.

“I checked the National Security Council’s website as well as the Attorney General’s Chambers' website but I did not see any declaration or gazettement that reflected the Law Minister’s announcement,” he said, referring to Datuk Seri Takiyuddin Hassan.
